Introduction
The unrestricted access to internet-based information demanded by the information society has led to an
exponential growth of both internet traffic and the volume of stored/retrieved data. Data centres are housing and
supporting the information technology and network telecommunications equipment for data processing, data
storage and data transport. They are required both by network operators (delivering those services to customer
premises) and by enterprises within those customer premises.
Data centres need to provide modular, scalable and flexible facilities and infrastructures to easily accommodate
the rapidly changing requirements of the market. In addition, energy consumption of data centres has become
critical both from an environmental point of view (reduction of carbon footprint) and with respect to economic
considerations (cost of energy) for the data centre operator.
The implementation of data centres varies in terms of:
a) purpose (enterprise, co-location, co-hosting, or network operator facilities);
b) security level;
c) physical size;
d) accommodation (mobile, temporary and permanent constructions).
The needs of data centres also vary in terms of availability of service, the provision of security and the
objectives for energy efficiency. These needs and objectives influence the design of data centres in terms of
building construction, power distribution, environmental control and physical security. Effective management
and operational information is required to monitor achievement of the defined needs and objectives.
This series of documents specifies requirements and recommendations to support the various parties involved
in the design, planning, procurement, integration, installation, operation and maintenance of facilities and
infrastructures within data centres. These parties include:
1) owners, facility managers, ICT managers, project managers, main contractors;
2) architects, consultants, building designers and builders, system and installation designers;
3) facility and infrastructure integrators, suppliers of equipment;
4) installers, maintainers.
At the time of publication of this Technical Report, EN 50600 series will comprise the following standards and
documents:
EN 50600-1, Information technology — Data centre facilities and infrastructures — Part 1: General concepts;
EN 50600-2-1, Information technology — Data centre facilities and infrastructures — Part 2-1: Building

Figure 1 — Schematic relationship between the EN 50600 series of documents
EN 50600-2-X documents specify requirements and recommendations for particular facilities and infrastructures
to support the relevant classification for “availability”, “physical security” and “energy efficiency enablement”
selected from EN 50600-1.
EN 50600-3-X documents specify requirements and recommendations for data centre operations, processes
and management.
EN 50600-4-X documents specify requirements and recommendations for key performance indicators (KPIs)
used to assess and improve the resource usage efficiency and effectiveness, respectively, of a data centre.
This Technical Report provides readers with an introduction into the EN 50600 series and the
interdependencies between the various standards in order to ease the correct application by all parties
concerned.
